Help CenterAdding a new email account to your device can enhance your productivity and streamline your communication. Here’s a simple guide to help you set up your email account using IMAP settings.
1. Access Your Profile: Start by clicking on your profile icon, which is typically located in the upper right corner of your screen. This will open a dropdown menu with various options.
2. Add Another Account: In the dropdown menu, look for the option labeled 'Add another Account' and click on it. You will then be prompted to choose the type of account you wish to add.
3. Select 'Other': From the list of account types, select 'Other'. This option is ideal for adding accounts that are not directly supported by the platform you are using.
4. Enter Your Email Address: Input the email address you created, for example, name@yourdomain. Make sure to double-check for any typos to ensure successful setup.
5. Choose Account Type: In the 'Type of Account' section, select 'Personal (IMAP)'. IMAP is recommended as it allows you to access your emails from multiple devices while keeping them synchronized.
6. Enter Your Password: Next, enter the password you created for your email account. Ensure that you input it correctly, as any mistakes may prevent you from accessing your email.
7. Set Up Incoming and Outgoing Settings: Finally, you will need to configure the incoming and outgoing mail server settings.
- Incoming Mail Server Settings: Next, you will need to enter the incoming mail server settings. This typically includes:
→ Server: This goes with the format of 'mail.yourdomain' (e.g., mail.gatehills.ae)
→ Port: (993 for IMAP)
→ Security Type: Select SSL/TLS.
- Outgoing Mail Server Settings: After entering the incoming settings, you will need to configure the outgoing mail server. This usually includes:
→ Server: This goes with the format of 'mail.yourdomain' (e.g., mail.gatehills.ae)
→ Port: (465 for SMTP)
→ Security Type: Select SSL/TLS.
Once you have entered all the necessary information, save your settings. Your email account should now be set up and ready to use. You can start sending and receiving emails right away!
By following these steps, you can easily add your email account and ensure that you stay connected wherever you are.
